Samit Dravid, son of former India captain and coach Rahul Dravid, has been called up for the Under-19 series against Australia. He has been selected for both the one-day and the four-day series. The series will feature three 50-over games and two four-day matches to be played in Puducherry and Chennai, respectively. The one-day team will be led by Mohd Amaan while the four-day side will be led by Soham Patwardhan
The three-match one-day series will be held in Puducherry on September 21, 23 and 26, and India will be led by Uttar Pradesh's Mohammad Amaan.
The series will then roll to Chennai for two four-day matches beginning on September 30 and October 7. The India squad for this leg of the tour will be captained by Soham Patwardhan of Madhya Pradesh.
Samit, a pace-bowling all-rounder, is currently playing for Mysore Warriors in the ongoing KSCA Maharaja T20 trophy in Bengaluru.
However, his outings so far have been underwhelming with the bat – 82 runs from seven innings with a highest of 33, and he is yet to bowl in the tournament.
